Reverting articles about mathematics

I ran into the Table of spherical harmonics containing a typo at the spherical harmonics of l=2 (namely, the normalization factor of Yz2). I found among other edits your latest revert, which undid a correction made by an anonymous user, thus reverting to an erroneous state. Please stop automatically undoing edits to articles about mathematics without checking the credibility of the edit. I know that anonymous edits can not be trusted in general, but irresponsible reverts are just as dangerous as uncredible edits. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Loudandras (talk • contribs)

I will continue, as a responsible wikipedia editor and administrator, to revert edits that are not supported by reliable sources, particularly when the material has stood for a long time. Changes of "2" to "4" by IP editors with no reason given are exactly what vandals do. There was no reason to know that the IP editor was not a vandal. The credibility of the edit is the responsibility of the editor making the change explaining it by an edit summery. Your later edit was fine because it came with an edit summary. --Bduke (Discussion) 22:07, 21 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Element Stability charts

Considering your interest in chemistry, I invite you to look at the Talk:Isotopes of lead article where I tried to point out the cognizant advantages of viewing the reported stability data of the wikipedia stability charts in a graphic format, which points out the most important aspects of the data as well as any trend data inconsistencies. This was deleted as being part of a "fringe theory" concerning some Real Physical Model Images that I had created of the atomic nuclei in an article I had also created. Since I really think that these "Element stability profile" charts are helpful in understanding the nuclear stability characteristic of the isotopes of an element as a whole, I wonder if you know a way for this information can be permitted to be added to the element isotopic data information.WFPM (talk) 17:58, 27 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, no. I am not going to get into this mess. --Bduke (Discussion) 10:43, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Well I'm sorry too that you can't see the merits of an Element stability profile chart. So thanks for your attention.WFPM (talk) 18:53, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest semi-protection. Xxanthippe (talk) 10:26, 28 January 2013 (UTC).[reply]

Bendigo workshop 2013

Can you help? Wikimedia Australia will be holding an introductory training day for editing Wikipedia and related projects. With support from La Trobe University and Bendigo Community Health Services, it is for health information professionals across the region. It will also be open to other information community groups as well (regional historic societies, librarians and the like). The workshop is on Thursday, February 21, at Latrobe University Bendigo. If you can help, please contact Leighblackall or Peterdownunder, or register directly at the Wikimedia page.--Peterdownunder (talk) 06:40, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Addition to Sexuality section

I really didn't appriciate the commentary that follows:

"I suggest that you take your concerns about the sexuality section on the article on B-P to the talk page of that article. If you just keep adding it, you will be blocked from editing and it will be reverted. However, you are not going to get consensus because your addition is not supported by sources. You are just making it up yourself. Getting that section as it now is was hard work with a lot of people contributing. It will not be easy to get consensus to chnage it. --Bduke (Discussion) 20:36, 31 January 2013 (UTC)"

You ALLOWED to edit the Wikipedia. Telling me I will be blocked simply for editing because you don't care for the content is not appropriate. Admins are not supposed to make threats of this nature. If I break the rules, then block me, until then, stop the threats. 76.118.130.14 (talk) 04:03, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
